Episode-539- A New Understanding of Money - Part Two [ 1:23:12 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | DownloadToday we shall continue with Part Two of “A New Understanding of Money”. This subject is deep and complex yet once we peal back the layers it is remarkably simple. Yesterdays show set up the fundamental underlying knowledge necessary to comprehend the real mess that has been made of our monetary system.
Today we will learn about the way our money is supposed to be created and managed and the common misconceptions about gold and currency in relation to the United States dollar.
